“This is the thing. In a non-cliché way, it’s weird waking up every day and literally living out your dream. … Obviously I have the most beautiful girlfriend in the world, and she’s absolutely amazing,” he told U.K.’s Rollacoaster magazine. “She’s been my dream girl since I was younger. She’s so ace.”

He continued, “She is a wonderful, wonderful person, and it’s amazing to have someone who can relate to so much of things, someone who’s taken greater steps than me. Her solo career was amazing. She’s been in the industry for 14 years now. She fully supports me. We’re super happy. It’s a very personal, precious time for us. I’m still learning. I’m only 23.”
